It's been so long since they've had a decent midfielder that they've forgotten what one looks like
Something that we could have said up until last week.
RAWK Goes Into Meltdown 2016-17 Edition

Something that we could have said up until last week.
I can see him finishing his career in Thailand (though not playing football).
yeah it was posted a few weeks back, but deserves regular debate
Not really. No one here was calling Fellaini a midfield general or talking about our midfield as if it was the best in the world. Almost everyone on here agreed we needed to sort our midfield options. Unlike those on RAWK who think Hendo is the dog's bollocks.
As it stands now - I can think of 2 Liverpool-players who would get into our team - Mane and Coutinho. Still 2 too many - but decent

But we really almost forget what a good midfield looks like
Not actually. That is why we always knew we didn't have a good midfield. If we had really forgotten, we would have been waxing lyricals for Fellaini.
For what its worth, I think you are right to point stuff like this out and commend you for doing so.
I don't get the nuance in the topic i.e. around specific words etc but that is precisely why it is a good idea for you to say something. On the net it is easy to be flippant in a way we wouldn't be in real life, especially regarding topics we don't know about.
It may seem small to others but as you pointed out, I don't like the idea that a stupid comment (that to me is maybe just a little joke) could be damaging to other United fans and put them off here. Leeds/ Liverpool fans perhaps, but not United fans
More top modding in the thread discussing their match with Burton Albion in the League Cup
Its not the best post in the world,but this:
Got this response from a mod:
I mean, I don't get banning someone for that. It IS embarrassing for the scouse to be in it this early.

That's why I'm posting on here and not RAWK. I posted in the Liverpool thread yesterday a frustrated and critical post about how we keep making the same mistakes over and over. If I'd posted that in RAWK or another Liverpool forum it would have been met with criticism and probably a ban.
I'd love to know the reasoning behind why that guy was banned. Was the mod in question a big fan of the League Cup?
It's a proper North Korea there.
Kim Jong-un is shaking his head and laughing at that.
Ministry of truth.
Why are they entering the League cup so early btw?
They're not in Europe.
Because they're not in European competition.
Oh right, didn't think about that.
We should start naming the mods who are banning people.
Talking about Us and Jose..
Cesc and Costa were bought in 2014. Chelsea won the league the first season those guys were there.
He isnt worried about us but he is worried about a team that is 5 points behind us already and hasn't won a league in 12 years. I am pretty sure he mentioned Arsenal so that he can feel better about beating them last week.
PS - Why is RAWK so overprotected, who runs it and why are they so hell bent on it being nothing but a positive place in spite of reality?

Our wheels will fall of cos of Pogbas price even though hes talented... yeah.
Mane on the right, and it'd be a toss up between Mata/Mkhitaryan/Coutinho for in behind Zlatan.
Emre Can beside Pogba, unless Fellaini manages to keep his early season form in which Can wouldn't have a chance then. None of there defenders or goalkeepers.
How in the name of christ do they keep thinking they'll finish above us when it's happened so friggin little in the last 5-10 years?!
We finished above them two years running with LVG for christ sake!
Sticks and stones mate, context is important. I didnt post that chant in an attempt to dehumanise anyone. If someone is offended, Ill delete and apologise no questions.
They have Klopp.How in the name of christ do they keep thinking they'll finish above us when it's happened so friggin little in the last 5-10 years?!

Exactly! It really puzzles meHow in the name of christ do they keep thinking they'll finish above us when it's happened so friggin little in the last 5-10 years?!

Delusion of the highest order

Hey, thanks for this. I knew I'd be accused of being PC or humourless if I said anything, and sure enough, the old "bet you're a blast at parties" line makes its tired appearance. I was waiting for the "its PC run amok," but we seem to have moved beyond Daily Mail kneejerking at last. At least we've (when I say "we," I mean football fans, since we were never the most enlightened demographic, lol) come a long way on homophobia, but I fear transphobia is gonna take a while. It does worry me since I know people who are exactly that vulnerable, and if they see themselves or representatives of their dysphoria ridiculed and mocked it can make their struggle for self-acceptance that much harder. A staggering 41 percent of trans people attempt suicide at some point. That's almost ten times the average, and its heartbreaking.
But yeah, feck Scouse trans people; they're on their own... (this humourless killjoy is kidding).
Don't worry about it. There were plenty of other comments, and I don't think anyone was being intentionally hurtful. I've said enough and I don't want to derail this thread any further, since mocking RAWK is never a bad thing. Just the number of comments didn't sit right with me, having seen the impact they can have on people who are genuinely struggling. But I think it's more about education than anything; I don't believe most of us know much about the issue despite a few recent pop culture inroads (Caitlyn Jenner, etc.).
" Klopp will Flop at the Kop "
I still can't help but chuckle at "I don't believe it" guy
The gif that keeps on giving
I've spent hours of my life watching this gif
RAWK logic.
Pogba must be literally, carrying all that cash on his back. Will be tired towards the end of the season.
They insult the word stupid -- United have 'over-paid' for players for decades from Law to Robson to Rio, Rooney to Ronaldo. And they have not done badly imo. (Granted, a few failures like Burtles and Webb)
